Para-Cotton Poly 80 weight is perfect for your bobbin and fine stitching. It is super fine but super strong.

The winner will receive the ENTIRE selection of every color. That means 100 spools for you worth over $550. You will never have to search for the exact color you need again. Keep it for yourself or share with friends (you'll have more after they hear you won!).
